Agreed. Although that's from the KF5 perspective, from Alex perspective it
should solve *his* hard point which is "I want to release ECM soon".
Turns out that both will be soon aligned as we have to get in release mode too
in the next couple of weeks.

If Alex is fine with that solution I admit it'd be my favorite path... I'm in
the same situation of having quite some of the stuff I'd like to reuse in non-
KDE projects too. Which is to me an indication it has value outside of KDE
projects.
The only exception being the install dirs indeed... It's then not a big deal
to have this single, and rather stable, file in ECM IMO.
Alex, opinions there?
Cheers.
